Kid Yamamoto

http://www.mmaweekly.com/absolutenm/...=2458&zoneid=3



excerpt from the article:

"Kid told the crowd that he's had a dream since he was a child to be an olympic wrestler and that's what he is now doing. He realizes that the quality of opponents in HERO'S is too high to fight and just use his wrestling skills. "I realize that I cannot come out and just tackle my opponents for three rounds."

Am I missing something right now? He says the quality of opponents in Hero's is too high and he cannot tackle his opponents for three rounds. I mean he's one of the best guys at his weight class and last time I checked he has almost all his victories by KO and TKO. So wtf is he talking about???
However is great to see him pursuing his dream and going for the gold.

I think he means if he is training full time to be an olympic wrestler then he can"t fight in heros because he will be spending all his time training wrestling, and only training wrestling isn"t a good thing for mma.

On another note I think he should stick with k-1 and mma, as wrestling turned it's back to kid in the past and mma has always been good to him.

Yeah, I think he means that he is wanting to focus on wrestling because he wants to get into the Olympics and there is no way he could just do wrestling and still fight MMA.

If the kid wants to pursue his dream then good for him, for his size he has accomplished everything in his weightclass...all i know is if he makes it he's one non-usa wrestler ill root for.
